Review
Rook’s on the run in the most dangerous storm in decades. When a
brush with the law goes from bad to worse, can she escape druggies, crazies,
and killers?
Abandoned by her now-ex-boyfriend at a dive bar in the middle of nowhere,
the last thing resilient Rook Kellum needs is the local sheriff confiscating
her I.D. when one phone call could expose her true identity and the reason
she is on the run from the law. So when she’s trapped by a deadly ice
storm that destroys the Mississippi Delta, the twenty-year-old fugitive has
a plan: get everyone drunk, steal back her license (and a madman’s
car), and get the hell out of town.
It is only when Rook escapes to a secluded cabin does she discover she
isn’t the only one in need of rescue. As she fights her way out of one
disaster just to get pounded with another, will Rook live to see the light
of day?
One Icy Night is Taylor Adam’s No Exit meets Rachel Hawkins’s The
Wife Upstairs.
